The Neurological Integration System (NIS) developed by Neurolink is a ground breaking approach to healthcare management used by practitioners around the globe. A NIS practitioner uses non-invasive, manual techniques to address the underlying causes of a wide range of complaints to help you achieve superior and sustainable results.
What is NIS about?
It bases the treatment methods on the neurophysiological principle that the brain governs optimum function of all body’s systems through neurological circuitry. It’s constantly receiving information from every facet of the body and then sends back the ‘fine tuning’ messages many times per second. This means that every cell, gland, organ, muscle, tendon, etc. in the body are constantly monitored via these circuits to the brain.
Practitioners using NIS evaluate the body’s action from a neurophysiological point of view. This makes the NIS method very accurate in determining the cause of complaints.
From time to time circuits in the body become disconnected similar to a fuse blowing in your car or home. Power is now reduced to that circuit and this will effect function. This is brought about when certain stresses to the body exceed our individual tolerances. These stresses can be physical, pathological, neurological or emotional.
Similarly, the brain no longer has full communication with the area of function, represented by that circuit. While the brain knows all about the symptom pattern that occurs as a result of stresses, it no longer ‘knows’ about the circuits that represent the underlying causes.
How are complaints addressed?
The NIS practitioner uses a prioritized set of treatment protocols to evaluate the neurological circuitry and the facets of body function they represent. This system in simple terms could be thought of like a checklist that could be applied when servicing your car. These ‘checks’ evaluate all causal dysfunction that may have translated into symptoms.
NIS is unique. the practitioner is a facilitator in the feeding of data to and from the brain. To find out which areas of body function the brain is not fully controlling, a muscle test is used. A muscle test is a scientifically proven method of determining whether the brain is in full communication with body function (1). The muscle test acts as a feedback indicator to determine functional confusion associated with any body system.
The science behind NIS
In order for optimum function to be restored, the brain must acknowledge the circuit fault. To do this, a NIS practitioner works with a defined area of neuroanatomy called the Post Central Gyrus. This area acts as the ‘receiving and dispatching’ center of the brain. When touched, sensations are mediated via neural pathways directly associated with the post central gyrus. For example, if you close your eyes and have someone touch just one hair on your head, you would be able to tell them exactly where that occurred. The post central gyrus allows you to relate the sensation to its location. The same principle applies with NIS treatment. The post central gyrus knows or acknowledges the relationship between the anatomical contacts the practitioner is holding.
What complaints may be helped by NIS?
With NIS your practitioner is able to treat a spectrum of complaints:
Structural - spinal, muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints
Physical - immune, digestive, respiratoruu, heart, chronic
Pathogenic - infections, viral, bacterial , fungal, protozoan
Neurological - depression, fertility, female health
Emotional - anxiety, bipolar, PTSD
How are complaints viewed with NIS?
The way your complaint is viewed by NIS is quite different to other healthcare options. Most options are in some way or another treating your symptoms and providing you with symptomatic relief. NIS addresses the real underlying causes to provide long-term, sustainable results.
For example, Asthma is a label indicating inflammation of the airways, causing respiratory difficulty. Rather than treat the inflammation itself, NIS seeks to determine and address the issues that are causing the inflammation in the first place. The same principle applies for a myriad of complaints.
